An essay by Pinter, “Writing for Myself,” introduces this collection.

Download or read book Betrayal written by Harold Pinter and published by Grove/Atlantic, Inc.. This book was released on 2014-01-07 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “One of the most essential artists produced by the twentieth century. Pinter’s work gets under our skin more than that of any living playwright.” —New York Times Upon its premiere at the National Theatre, Betrayal was immediately recognized as a masterpiece. It won the Olivier Award for best new play, and has since been performed all around the world and made into an Academy Award-nominated film starring Jeremy Irons, Ben Kingsley, and Patricia Hodge. Betrayal begins with a meeting between adulterous lovers, Emma and Jerry, two years after their affair has ended. During the nine scenes of the play, we move back in time through the stages of their affair, ending in the house of Emma and her husband Robert, Jerry’s best friend. “[Betrayal] deals with the shifting balance of power in triangular relationships, and with the pain of loss. . . . Pinter probes the corrosive nature of betrayal . . . a world where pain and loss are explored with poetic precision.” —Guardian “Betrayal is an exquisite play, brilliantly simple in form and courageous in its search for a poetry that turns banality into a melancholy beauty.” —Newsweek “There is hardly a line into which desire, pain, alarm, sorrow, rage or some kind of blend of feelings has not been compressed, like volatile gas in a cylinder less stable than it looks . . . The play's subject is not sex, not even adultery, but the politics of betrayal and the damage it inflicts on all involved.” —Times (UK)
Download or read book No Man's Land written by Harold Pinter and published by Grove/Atlantic, Inc.. This book was released on 2013-12-19 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “An oblique comedy of menace, unsettling, exquisitely wrought and written . . . a complex excursion into the by now familiar Pinter world of mixed reality and fantasy, of human worth and human degradation.” —New York Times Set against the decayed elegance of a house in London’s Hampstead Heath, in No Man’s Land two men face each other over a drink. Do they know each other, or is each performing an elaborate character of recognition? Their ambiguity—and the comedy—intensify with the arrival of two younger men, the one ostensibly a manservant, the other a male secretary. All four inhabit a no man’s land between time present and time remembered, between reality and imagination—a territory which Pinter explores with his characteristic mixture of biting wit, aggression, and anarchic sexuality.

But trouble lurks outside the 3rd's unguarded borders: a tearful endorsement from the coattail rider The Profit is threatening to sabotage Rufus' bandwagoning. Will truth prevail? Nope.

Download or read book Death etc. written by Harold Pinter and published by Grove/Atlantic, Inc.. This book was released on 2015-01-27 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A collection of political essays, poetry, and dramatic works by the Nobel Prize–winning playwright and author of Betrayal. Throughout his life, playwright, poet, and political activist Harold Pinter has consistently cast light on the hypocrisy of power and those who would defend the status quo for the sake of their own security and comfort. Awarded the Wilfred Owen Prize in 2004 for his poetry condemning US military intervention in Iraq, Mr. Pinter has succeeded in combining his artistry with his political activism. Death etc. brings together Pinter’s most poignant and especially relevant writings in response to war. From chilling psychological portraits of those who commit atrocities in the name of a higher power, to essays on the state-sponsored terrorism of present-day regimes, to solemn hymns commemorating the faceless masses that perish unrecognized, Mr. Pinter’s writings are as essential to the preservation of open debate as to our awareness of personal involvement in the fate of our global community.
Book Synopsis Eroding the Language of Freedom by : Farah Ali
Download or read book Eroding the Language of Freedom written by Farah Ali and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-18 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Let down by the uncertainties of memory, language, and their own family units, the characters in Harold Pinter’s plays endure persistent struggles to establish their own identities. Eroding the Language of Freedom re-examines how identity is shaped in these plays, arguing that the characters’ failure to function as active members of society speaks volumes to Pinter’s ideological preoccupation with society’s own inadequacies. Pinter described himself as addressing the state of the world through his plays, and in the linguistic games, emotional balancing acts, and recurring scenarios through which he put his characters, readers and audiences can see how he perceived that world.

Book Synopsis The Tea Party Affair by : Alexander Engel-Hodgkinson
Download or read book The Tea Party Affair written by Alexander Engel-Hodgkinson and published by . This book was released on 2018-10-25 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nancy Corbane, the trophy wife of the feared and volatile ex-gangster Kaiser Corbane, turns up dead during a tea party attended by a group of professional thugs. The other partygoers know that Kaiser is coming to the party (and leaving a trail of destruction in his wake), so they do what any sensible individuals who find themselves in the middle of a crime scene would do: they hide the body and clean up the evidence, all while poking and prodding each other in increasingly desperate attempts to find out the identity of the murderer sitting among them before Kaiser's arrival.
Download or read book Celebration written by Harold Pinter and published by Grove Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jack Kroll in Newsweek has called Harold Pinter "the most fascinating, enigmatic and accomplished dramatist in the English language." Since his first full-length play, The Birthday Party (1958), and continuing with The Homecoming (1965), Pinter has trained a sharp eye on the strange dynamics of modern family life. In his newest play, Celebration, he continues to examine the darker places of relationships. Celebration is an acerbic portrait of a sated culture choking on its own material success. Startling, full of black humor and wicked satire, Celebration displays a vivid zest for life. Also included in this volume is Pinter's classic play The Room. Both plays are invested with the elements that make Pinter's work unique: the disturbingly familiar dialogue, subtle characterization, and abrupt mood and power shifts among characters, which can be by turns terrifying, moving, and wildly funny.
